1. Clachan of Campsie Campsie Glen
Clachan of Campsie or Campsie Glen is a settlement now in the East Dunbartonshire area of Scotland. It was formerly part of the county of Stirlingshire. It is situated to the south of the Campsie Fells at the foot of Campsie Glen where the Finglen and Aldessan Burns meet, forming the Glazert Water which then flows south-east until it joins the River Kelvin near Kirkintilloch. In it are old industries, Crow Road, Jamie Wright's well, Lennox Castle, Woodhead House, St Machan's Church, and Campsie Glen. Clachan of Campsie used to be the main town of the area until Lennoxtown started being built that was then called New Campsie. Campsie Glen was a busy place in those times and has slowly died down until now with not many houses left.

3. Falkirk Wheel Falkirk
The Falkirk Wheel is a rotating boat lift in central Scotland, connecting the Forth and Clyde Canal with the Union Canal. The lift is named after Falkirk, the town in which it is located. It reconnects the two canals for the first time since the 1930s. It opened in 2002 as part of the Millennium Link project. The plan to regenerate central Scotland's canals and reconnect Glasgow with Edinburgh was led by British Waterways with support and funding from seven local authorities, the Scottish Enterprise Network, the European Regional Development Fund, and the Millennium Commission. Planners decided early on to create a dramatic 21st-century landmark structure to reconnect the canals, instead of simply recreating the historic lock flight. The wheel raises boats by 24 metres , but the Union Cana...

6. Doune Castle Doune
Doune Castle is a medieval stronghold near the village of Doune, in the Stirling district of central Scotland. The castle is sited on a wooded bend where the Ardoch Burn flows into the River Teith. It lies 8 miles north-west of Stirling, where the Teith flows into the River Forth. Upstream, 8 miles further north-west, the town of Callander lies at the edge of the Trossachs, on the fringe of the Scottish Highlands. Recent research has shown that Doune Castle was originally built in the thirteenth century, then probably damaged in the Scottish Wars of Independence, before being rebuilt in its present form in the late 14th century by Robert Stewart, Duke of Albany , the son of King Robert II of Scots, and Regent of Scotland from 1388 until his death. Duke Robert's stronghold has survived rela...

How to stop rattles in your motorhome - Motorhome / Caravan Tips, Tricks & Improvements

How to stop rattles in your motorhome! Tips, tricks & improvements for your motorhome or caravan in order to prepare for a peaceful & organised touring season.

Ah, rattles. Clinks. Crashes. Bangs. All the lovely noises a motorhome makes as it flies over a speed bump or a badly built road (yes Italy, I'm looking at you!)

After our tour around Europe last year, we got really good at learning how to stop rattles in our motorhome- how to pack cupboards and storage places securely so that things didn't move when they weren't supposed to (and they didn't annoy the driver!!) There's nothing worse than listening to something 'tapping' in a cupboard for 100 miles!

I hope you find these tips, tricks and improvements useful- if you have any others, please share them below so we can all benefit.

In 2017, our family travelled Europe in a motorhome. When we returned, we decided we liked it so much we wanted to do it again! So we traded in the van for a bigger model, quit (one of) our jobs and in 2018 we're heading off to explore Europe again- proper RV living!

We're starting with Germany and then moving on to Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Finland and many more. We hope you can follow our journey!
